Is there anyone who has R85s on their MINI with silver bolts, rather than the black bolts that are usually supplied? I'd be interested to see some pictures.

Many thanks.

Thanks. Does it looks ok? All the pictures I've seen of MINIs with R85s have had black bolts. I'm worried that it won't look right with silver!

Just a thought.
I don't know if they're still around but you used to be able to buy cheap chromed plastic caps for lug nuts/bolts. You could buy a set and try out the look. Then if you like it purchase the real bolts.
Please DO NOT leave the cheap caps on :rollyes: Respect your car and yourself
